5 thoughts on “Photo of the day”

That is absolutely breathtaking. Good job! I had a new camera on my trip to England, so mostly experimentation and not so many great photos, but I’m hoping to glean a few good ones! The important thing is it weighed about a quarter of the one I had so I actually got to enjoy my walking about without a constnatly aching back. And the point of traveling is to be present and not just get great photos, right? 🙂

I got a Panasonic Lumix TZ5. Originally, I purchased a Nikon Coolpix s560 (I think), but I wasn’t crazy about the sample pictures I took, so I ordered this one on Amazon instead. Great reviews on both, and the Panasonic was a little heavier, but had a longer optical zoom and a few more features I wanted. They were in a similar price range. The smallest cameras like these don’t take pictures as well as heavier ones because of shake, but it did pretty well now that I’ve gone back and looked at my photos again with a less critical eye. The closeups aren’t great except by chance and with absolutely no breeze, though, which kind of bummed me out.
